Raiders at Rams Preseason Week 2

[Mick]

My god. Bring a new QB in.

No need....we have Perez. He is Warner 2.0 with his backstory.

 

[Mick]

Another bad call incoming.....

 

[Loyal]

Thomas had a nice grab over the middle today.
Don’t confuse lack of targets with lack of ability. Also watch the effort Thomas puts in on blocking. You don’t cut bait on guys like that.

gets knife

 

[jrry32]

McVay should throw the challenge flag on these refs just to make a point.

 

[Mick]

These refs are mid season in form....my god...they all fucking blind?

 

[RamFanWA]

That was either a BS call, or it is a BS rule....

 

[rdlkgliders]

this new helmet rule is going to ruin some games

 

[dieterbrock]

What a catch. Raiders won’t be able to put Whalen on ps!

Reynolds caught a TD against the Saints last year in a real game. And the Rams/McVay have talked about how excited they are about him. He's a better player than Hodge. If you haven't seen much from Thomas, you haven't watched our special teams closely the past couple of years. He's the best gunner on arguably the best special teams unit. And that keeps him on the roster. I highly doubt that we keep 7 WRs. Barring injury, our WRs will be Cooks, Woods, Kupp, Reynolds, Cooper, and Thomas. Hodge isn't ready for the big time yet. He has size and hands, but the technical aspects of his game aren't there yet. He needs time on the practice squad.

We'll see. I don't think he ever makes the practice squad, jmo.

 

[Rainram]

ugh

 

[Memento]

Horrible call, and a game-changing call. These zebras suck.

 

[tomas]

4 game losing streak.........

 

[A.J. Hicks]

How can you keep Thomas or even Reynolds just because they are tall and are suspect in catching the ball? After all of the years we sucked at picking WR's, to let a good one go to be stolen on the practice squad, just kills me.

Thomas is elite as a special teams player. Reynolds showed well in those regards last season as well.

Hodge has made some nice catches but to be an end of roster guy you need to have special teams ability.

 

[Karate61]

They need auto-replay, if they call it, on these helmet penalties. They get it so wrong, so often...

 

[jrry32]

We'll see. I don't think he ever makes the practice squad, jmo.

They can have him, then. He was signed just before camp. That means nobody else wanted to have the guy on their 90-man roster going into camp. He's showed flashes in the preseason, but he's not ready for the big time yet. We're not going to cut an All Pro returner (Cooper), a Pro Bowl caliber special teamer (Thomas), or a very talented WR we drafted in the 4th round last year who started while Woods was out (Reynolds).

 

[jrry32]

What a stupid decision by Kelly.

 

[dieterbrock]

No way Paul McRoberts or Brandon Shippen make it to the PS
